Not every woman may have a natural shaped breast form that is compatible with body contours, which is considered one of the complementary elements of feminine appearance. In adolescence, breast tissue not developing enough or cancer, etc. Breast augmentation surgery is one of the most frequently used plastic surgery operations today due to damage to the breast tissue due to diseases. 

Breast augmentation surgery is an operation that can be done in more than one way. In breast augmentation surgeries, as well as breast prosthesis (implants), fat injection can be used, and in some cases, both techniques can be applied at the same time. 

The method to be used in breast augmentation surgery is determined according to the patient’s wishes. For example, if the patient wants a high profile breast form, the fat injection method will not be appropriate. Because, with fat injection, an average of half size or in some cases, only one size growth can be achieved. However, since the person’s own fat is used in breast augmentation surgeries performed with fat injection, the body structure must be suitable for fat intake. With the methods determined in line with the needs of the patient and the right planning, everyone can achieve a shaped breast form that is compatible with the body contours. 

Breast Prosthesis Selection

Breast prostheses are basically two types in shape care: drop (anatomic) and round. The prosthesis to be used is decided according to the patient’s body structure as well as vital habits, clothing choices and the appearance she wants to highlight. 

In breast prostheses (implants), the prosthesis, which we call drop (anatomical), offers an image that fits the natural curvature of the body. If the patient wants a natural curve, a drop (anatomic) prosthesis is used. Although round prostheses are divided into low and high profile, they are the prostheses applied if the patient wants the decollete area to be much more prominent and striking.

With a correct planning in both prostheses, a shaped breast form can be obtained without sacrificing the natural appearance.

Breast augmentation surgeries are comfortable and reliable surgeries in which the patient stays in the hospital for one day after the operation performed under general anesthesia. In breast augmentation surgery, incision can be performed from the armpit, lower chest or nipple. The location in which the incision will be made is determined at the planning stage of the surgery. When an average incision of 3-4 cm is planned well, an almost scar-free image can be obtained after surgery. 

After breast augmentation surgery, which takes an average of 1.5 – 2 hours, the patient can easily return to her social life within 4 to 6 days. Even if you return to social life, it is important that you do not force yourself, especially in the first weeks, and not use your arms too much. However, you can easily take a shower 1 week after the operation and start to do exercise approximately 1,5 months later.
